To ensure accuracy of the results, Lion 500 alcometer's calibration should be checked periodically using known alcohol standard gas canister. These contain compressed air mixed with alcohol vapour in a known concentration and available in 2 options - Short Shelf Life and Long Shelf Life. As a guide, depending on the usage a recalibration should not be required before every 6 months. Both these canisters are expiry prone products so to ensure longest expiry you need not purchase the alcohol standard before you actually require them. When required, we can supply these - Please email/call us or look for product codes FS281 and FS280 on our website.
